Your First!

[gracielou]

The thing I love about scrapbooking is that it is always changing. There is always something new and fresh. I look back in my old scrapbooks and it is amazing to see just how far it has all come even in the span of 7years. My style is also changing at diffrent times. One of the things I like to do though is look back at my very first scrapbooks and see just how far I have come.
I thought it would be fun to post one of your very first layouts you did and then post one of your most recent layouts. I love to see how people have evolved in this craft and so I really hope you will participate. You can also tell what you liked or didn't like about that first layout.
I will go fist. I started out paper scrapping and so here is the very first page I ever did



I think really the only thing I like about this page is the cute pictures of my daughter. I did the title with letter stencils and I can't beleive how hidious it looks and what about the placement of those flower stickers. Not sure what I was thinking on that one.
Here is my most recent digital layout I have done



I still have a long way to go but I see I sure have come a long way to!
I look forward to seeing your pages.

Here's my first (paper) page ever. I did it at the Scrapbooking 101 class. Check out my layered title. I was so proud. LOL



Yeah, I've changed a bit. LOL

Here's my most recent (that I can post) digital (although I do still paper scrap!)

I have tons of paper scrapped LOs, but my camera is charging so I can't take any pics right now. So instead I'll post one of my first digi ones.

I was so proud of that extraction at the time. It's still a technique that I just can't seem to master.
And here's a more recent one that I really like...

I'm super impressed you were doing extraction at first, you did it well!

(Angie4b1g )Oh thank you for playing along. I love all the shapes in your first layout. Your digital layout is stunning. Very beautiful and I love that photo. What a great capture of a moment!

[gracielou]

That is fantastic Tracey. I wouldn't even know where to start with the extraction thing! You should see my first digital layout. I would put a paper on another paper and then I would resize without keeping the proportions in balance so it would just distort the whole paper. Very hidious, trust me. And I had no clue about drop shadows.

Oh Amanda I dont think that was hideous honey!!! I actually love the colors you chose! I never actually did paper scrapping! I started right with digi. My first layout is actually in a photobucket because I had no concept of credits and well honestly it wasnt umm pretty LOL!! My second was a bit better but not by all that much LOL!
This is my second layout
